Me too, but it was '70s/'80s/'90s cars. Guess that's how you can tell if your kid will be a car guy. On that note, that's the other thing, when people ask what my hobbies are and I say "Cars" or "I'm a car guy" they look at me like I have three heads and honestly have absolutely no idea what I...

The other thing, which Coronetrt69 touched on, was the emotional aspect. Now, if you mean that people my age can't have an emotional attachment to '60s muscle cars, that may be so since we didn't grow up with them, but if you are suggesting we can't have emotional attachment with cars at all, I...

Dear Lord, you know things are grim when Hagerty of all lists SUVs, Fiats, and VW breadboxes as the future of collectibility. And honestly, they put the 4-door Charger on there but not the much sexier Challenger? Perhaps a personal gripe, but I think Chrysler really took a dump on the...

This is a good point, though even good examples of these have soared. I remember when I was 15, I didn't have much to buy my first car with (got my Camaro as you see it for $4300) and I remember a couple years later nearly trading it on a VERY clean '67 Camaro SS for just $8k; the same lot had...

Thought I'd try to get some insight here. I'll preface this by saying I love muscle cars of all types (though a '68 Charger is and has been the dream for half of my life, and a '70/'71 Cuda would be the next car after that). I also just turned 28, so I'm on the younger end of the spectrum...

This is another disgrace to a namesake. Why does Chrysler keep doing this? If they want to build these FWD econoboxes, fine, but for the love of God call it something else and let the old namesakes rest. The late model Charger is a disgrace in every way to the originals, as was the Charger of...

(continued, character limit) At about 1:30 A.M. Mary and I start heading for the cornfields. Many others do the same but we try to do it inconspicuously so as to not tip off the 5.0 as to where we are doing it. They know we are doing it every weekend, they just don't always know where. We get...

I wrote this when I was 19, I'm 27 now. I grew up long after the muscle car era, so here's a glimpse at how those of us who weren't there romance about it. Still to this day, the '68 Charger is and has been my dream car, and truly the most beautiful car ever built. I've felt that way since I...

This isn't good. The classic muscle car tire--the BFG Radial T/A with raised white letters--seems to have either been discontinued or is in the process of being discontinued. Sizes available are FAR fewer than before, and of those sizes left, many of them are on backorder nationwide with no...

Absolutely beautiful, can't wait to see her all finished up!

IMO the new Chargers are a complete disgrace to the namesake. 4 doors and pieced together bland plastic. No thanks. 1970 was the last year in my eyes, but I can appreciate/respect the early 70s models. The new Challenger on the other hand...whoever designed that should get to design the next...

I see a lot of people say after a lengthy restoration that if they could do it again, they would buy a finished car to begin with since it would be a lot cheaper. For me, as my mechanical ability and more importantly tools/resources are low, it's the only way to go. I think half the fun is...

I wish they'd go down a little bit, or at least hit a level and stay there for good.

Could you give me a rundown of the entire process? I'm assuming you start with applying to see how much you can borrow, then once you get approved knowing that amount, you start shopping and when you find a car you like, call up J.J. and tell them...and from there? If you don't mind my asking...

It certainly would be a luxury want. I can't imagine owning a 40 year old $40k+ Charger is a need for anyone. I've wanted one for over half of my life, and I've been diligent in putting myself through school, and being flawless with my credit. It's been a dream, and I've worked hard for it...

Hello there, new young guy here (26). Owned a Camaro since I was 15, but I've lusted after a '68 Charger since I was 12 or 13. My mechanical ability is very low, so I can not handle a restoration. For me, the best choice is to buy a finished car. However, we all know what kind of...
